Ashburnham Arms in Greenwich

Great family-run pub, great food, tucked away in a residential area.

Great local pub with really good Sunday lunch

A great place for a drink and / or meal. Marvellous ambience and nice gardens. Highly recommended.

Great place in Greenwich for a drink.

Lovely Sunday roast,good service and reasonable price

Went here again other day, nice cosy atmosphere and our food was really good. The friendly bar manager even remembered my drink order from last time, don’t get that personal service many places round here anymore.

Having visited this pub on several occasions, I have mixed reviews. The general staff are kind and attentive, unfortunately the owner’s attitude leaves a lot to be desired. On my first visit here, we were told abruptly near to closing time we had to leave, not receiving the usual warning you would expect. As it was such a nice bar, we gave the landlady the benefit of the doubt. On our second visit, as it came closer to midnight, we were given no warning to closing time but were wrapping up our night at the pub. As I was in the toilet, my partner heard “there’s a few in the corner, and they’re Irish”. She was very prompt in getting rid of us. I feel unless you’re of the certain clientele who live on this road you’re not particularly welcome here.

We’ve always liked coming to the Ashburnham as it’s a lovely local pub, but we sadly won’t be coming back after an incredibly disheartening experience tonight. Our small group was having a nice, quiet night with a few drinks — being polite with each order, and never being loud or disruptive. About 10 minutes before closing time, as we were finishing up our drinks, the manager came over to our table and said “you have 10 minutes” and walked away — okay, fine; we were getting ready to head off anyway. One of us got up to use the toilet before leaving and on the way back that same manager was overheard saying “yeah, there’s three left over there in the corner — and they’re Irish.” Just a completely unnecessary comment, made by someone who very clearly hates being around certain customers. It seems as though unless you’re of a particular class/race, you’re not welcome here.

Good pint but no one in there..pub was dead..

Great little spot! The food is delicious and the staff is lovely but kitchen closes at 4 so make sure to get in early☺️ Most of us had beef or chicken and one had the nut roast. We couldn't help but swap morsels and everything was delicious!

One of Shepherd Neame's hidden gems of a pub. When we arrived it had a nice roaring fire with sofas right in front. Could have easily stayed all day. The beer choice is absolutely top notch.

Came for a Sunday roast as a walk-in and staff did their best to accommodate us. At 4.30pm, we had the last chicken roasts that were available. The roast itself was a 7 out of 10, with very tender meat and lovely carrots and parsnips, but very sturdy roast potatoes and not enough gravy. Big bonus: the many board games they have available at the pub!!

A small eatery and bar roast dinner was very nice and large portions.

Our favourite friendly local. We love coming to the Ashburnham regularly. Pepina the owner is so great (as is Bandit the dog!) and always welcomes us warmly, as she does our dog Lily who enjoys many a treat while there! The food is good as are the drinks. They get their meat from the local butcher, so the Sunday roast is a must! A super hidden gem in Greenwich.

Nice place, gorgeous little garden, felt authentic and the beer was good. Little bit posh but I guess that's just the area. Still though, would recommend if you want a quiet pint.

Amazing place, great food with a warm welcome. People should travel to go and discover this gem

Been here a couple of times really friendly atmosphere more like a country pub in the middle of the city Highly recommend

A nice cosy local pub. The owners are very friendly, and there is a good variety of beer. We did not eat. A good place to watch sport as they have a big screen that comes down in addition to a couple of tv's. A nice garden to sit out as well.

Our preferred hotel for the o2 and London Stadium is a five minute amble from the Ashburnham. We otherwise visit Greenwich several weekends per year, this is our favourite part of London with our favourite London pub. Always excellent condition ales from Shepherd Neame, superb food (exceptional Sunday Roasts - booking advised, midweek fayre is excellent too), Churchill sofas, open fire in the winter, a selection of board games available, friendly locals, front and rear beer gardens, set in a conservation area in a quiet suburban area. Nothing not to like here.

Popped in for a quick dinner tonight. Both of us had burgers and they were delicious! Chips were also great -nice and hot👍 Jacob was so friendly with fantastic customer service and a good knowledge of the many beers on tap. He was attending both the bar also waiting on us for dinner. 👌 A hidden gem in the back streets of Greenwich. We'd previously visited 5 years ago on our last UK trip. It was nice to be back. Thank you for a pleasant evening. Cheers! 🍻

Fitted us in for a large booking last minute, we had such a lovely time and the staff were super helpful and friendly!

Food and drinks selection was great. Service was slow and not as friendly as we're used to.

Well off the tourist track! This is a wonderful friendly local pub with excellent beers (including a very low alcohol draft lager). Very clean, plenty of seating including huge beer gardens front and rear.

Last day of my short break and had passed this establishment several times and it was mobbed so I took the opportunity to slip in when it was quiet . A really pleasant little place off the beaten track and I loved the original fire place in the bar. Lovely well kept outdoor seating area and my pint of Spitfire Lager went down a treat.

Traditional Lobdon pub with friendly staff and good atmosphere.

Lovely local pub. Local ale with a front and large back garden seating area. (Can be reserved for private parties.) Front garden area is smaller. Very kid friendly. Based on where this is located you will find many locals here. It's located on the same street of the famous authors home Edgar Wallace. (Be sure to have a look 10 house up) nice plaque. Didn't get a chance to try food as kitchen was closing to be reopened again later. Menu looks nice.. It's a proper local family run pub. Will visit again.....

Nice pub and attentive landlady

Lovely outdoor seating front and back

Great Sunday roast and very friendly staff

Popular and comforable back street pub.

Lovely atmosphere and nice food.

Nice cosy atmosphere and pleasant staff

The wings are phenomenal! The vibes are great. Nice family hang space as well. We will definitely be back

Wonderful experience. It's family friendly and as a father of 3 that for me is key.

Really nice quiet pub, landlady is lovely as is the dog 😁

Best place for fish and chips! Great home made tartar sauce! Lovely staff and very kind owner ❤️

Beautifully kept and very friendly pub. Tucked away down a residential street, this is very much a ‘local’. Definitely worth a detour

Such an amazing hidden gem in Deptford Bridge. The indoors seating decoration is fab and there is a front and back garden; both lovely. In this pub my partner has found his favourite non alcoholic on tap beer (quite difficult to find 0 alcohol beer on tap even these days I dare say).

Nice pub, a couple of cask ales on and good selection of snacks/ food on offer. Was quite quiet on a Thursday evening, so had a nice evening talking to friends

Nice food and very friendly staff. Really enjoyed it.

Visited last night to catch up with an old friend who’s local this is. Absolute pleasure. The mood of the place, decor, music, selection of beers, amazing, amazing food and utterly delightful Landlady. Can’t recommend enough. Can’t wait to return.

Had a fantastic Sunday Roast here a few weekends ago. The quality and portion size is top notch, and the staff and manager made me and my pals feel so welcome. Really lovely pub.

Best Sunday lunch in Greenwich. Good service. Nice local pub. Would definitely come back. What more needs to be said !

Over the forty odd years of using this wonderful, local pub, many landlords have come and gone, and for the best part, have done a good job. The present landlady is friendly, and very welcoming. The changes she has introduced have all been for the best. There is always a good atmosphere here, and the staff are helpful and efficient. The menu changes regularly and the choices for meat eaters and vegetarians is very good - and the quality is excellent. For those yet to discover this little gem of a pub, it’s really worth checking it out - you won’t be disappointed .

What can I say. Best kept cellar in Greenwich town. Yes, tried them all. Their master brew is perfection. Good price too at £4.10 a pop. Food looks and smells delicious so I’ll be coming back for that. Got a good COVID policy easy to follow and no shortcuts on safety. Add brilliant staff into the mix and you’ve gotta winner. The manager and the bar team are superb and the clientele seem like a great bunch of locals. All in all a very pleasant experience and highly recommend 👍

This looks like a nice and cozy pub, which I'm sure has nice food and beers. However the one star is for the absolute jerk of a owner/manager of this place, a blonde estern european woman. Didn't allow us to sit down with a newborn inside. At first she was ok with it even though said that there is a curfew of 9pm but said that newborn would be ok, as long as the parents are ok. Then gave her unwelcomed opinion about how it's not nice to bring a newborn anywhere after 9, then flat out said that we cannot have a table inside because she's afraid of people seeing the newborn and complaining that the pub doesn't respect curfew. This is the first time I hear about these rules as if they are being imposed on the pub by the government. NOTHING I READ ON THE GOV.UK WEBSITE SAYS THAT YOU CANNOT HAVE A CHILD IN A PUB AT 10PM IF WITH PARENT (and I did politely share this with her). What it does say that some pubs do impose these rules themselves. Fine! Just say it like that, don't lie to me about loosing licenses. In the end she suggested to sit in the cold garden on rainy weather with a newborn simply cause she thinks she's going to loose her licence cause someone sees the newborn inside the pub. Absolute worst experience ever in any pub thanks to a terribly mannered and terribly spoken person. The industry is called HOSPITALITY. At the very least one would expect a decent thorough honest explanation of why is it that you are neglecting access to the inside of the pub. I can see that i am not the only person (although rare) that is commenting about this womans atrocious rudeness. People like that should just not work hospitality or at the very least not be client facing. it really has been a while since i met someone so ignorant unprofessionla and rude.

Great pub tucked away a short distance from Greenwich park. Lovely garden out the back and very friendly, helpful staff.

Used to come here regularly when I came to London 46 years ago, the last visit being about 10 years ago, merely because of a loss of real interest in pub drinking. Living not too far away and wanting a midday stroll, decided on passing to pop in for their Sunday roast - a choice of beef, chicken, pork or nut. Social distancing well observed, quite a few customers preferring the blistering heat of the jolly back garden area, so inside was very comfortable. Pleasant and friendly service, and a great welcome. Opted for the pork, with a delicious pint of of Master Brew. The pork shoulder was excellent and the strip of crackling with it being the most delicious I've tasted for years. Top marks to the chef on this occasion. Greenwich has a plethora of pubs but the Ash holds its own.

We booked ahead for 7. We were asked the number of families this combined and whether we were eating as well. We were reassured by previous reviews and the questions the owner asked us. The venue is 15 minutes walk away from the Cutty Sark. Which meant there was a pleasant walk there and the walk back was useful as we were all really full afterwards! There is a lovely garden at the front of the pub and a really friendly vibe. We were welcomed through the door and asked to sign in for tracing purposes. Inside a one way system had been effectively set up and there was plenty of hand sanitiser. Inside patrons were seated in accordance with social distance. Outside was even nicer than pictures revealed. As a group of 7 who had prebooked we were seated in a gorgeous walled area surrounded by pots of flowers, tomato, pepper plants and herbs. We ordered a combination of fish and chips and Ashburnham Arms speciality burgers. All plates were cleared with everyone thoroughly enjoying their hot meals. The service was wonderful. The fish was sourced locally and was cooked to perfection. The homemade tartar sauce was awesome. We were not rushed at all and felt as safe as we possibly could be in these strange times. I would thoroughly recommend Ashburnham Arms although I would urge you to book in advance especially if you are going to eat.

Fabulous Sunday lunch in a proper pub, could have hidden from storm Ciara here all afternoon. Toastier on the bar afterwards is always a good sign.

My favourite Local. Great neighbourhood pub, with an amazing team leading both front and back of house. It has a comfortable and welcoming ambiance, offering great food, including anything from home made Pizzas to Sunday Lunches that pack the pub. (GF request in advance😉). Pet and Kid friendly. It has two gardens one front and one back, which are fantastic for events (reservations required). Always filled with Locals, it is a great place to build lasting friendships, as well as meeting new people. See you soon Peppina and Latina!

Fantastic local pub with a good local ales and great pub grub. The burgers are fantastic and fresh. By far the best in Greenwich. The beer garden is great in summer. And they have 2 jengas!

This pub/restaurant is well hidden in a residential area; but don’t be fooled; this place is perfect for some amazing food and good hospitality! The burger I had was just awesome. Will definitely come here again.

Fantastic local pub ideal for family day out or catching up with friends over a pint of tasty Ale. Sunday roast is also absolutely delicious. They do barbecues as well at the spacious back garden. Can't wait for another visit.

The pub is happy to allow people to leep drinking in the beer garden after 12,30pm, disrespectful for the houses all around, people that drunk they are dropping glasses and the broken glass gets left on the floor! Any football on the customers are loud until 1AM. It has gone downhill, landlord obviously only thinking of lining their pocket.

Tengo la costumbre de tener mi almuerzo del domingo en el Ashburnham Arms. Es un lugar acogedor, los propietarios son amables y mi amigo y yo hemos llegado al punto en el que tenemos nuestra "propia" mesa.Como vegano, me he acostumbrado a arreglármelas con la comida bastante aburrida cuando estoy en los pubs, pero aquí, hacen la mejor cena de asado de nueces. Incluso tengo un poco de helado vegano para que pueda tener postre si quiero.Muy recomendado para todos los paladares (mi amigo dice que las opciones de carne también son encantadoras).Es un poco oculto, la ubicación, es decir, pero búscala, no te decepcionará.

Intenté pagar una cerveza con mi teléfono usando pagos sin contacto, pero dijeron que solo aceptan tarjetas sin contacto, no dispositivos. Así que dije que solo conseguí una nota de 20 y se la entregué. Me devolvieron el cambio de 10, pero no tenía forma de demostrar que les había dado 20. Así que eso es 10 desaparecido. Tenga cuidado aquí porque el personal es deshonesto o incompetente.

Dit is een leuke, drukke en gezellige buurtpub, zoals je ze op vakantie wil hebben.Vriendelijke bediening en een lekkere "draft ales".Eigenlijk wilden we ook iets eten, maar alles was gereserveerd, dus hebben we alleen even van een biertje en de sfeer genoten.

古老的傳統當地酒吧。個人和真實。如果你很近，很適合幾品脫。我沒有食物，但菜單看起來很不錯。從過去的好爆炸。

Had a couple of pints. Enjoyed the crack and a great host for the quiz night. Very inclusive. Ohhhhhhh and an excellent pint or two. Thanks

Visiting our son and wanted a bite to eat. So came here on spec. The pub is basic but the food is lovely. Home cooked and great value for money. We’ll have to call back at some point in the future when we’re down again.

Mi compañero y yo vinimos a Greenwich para visitar a algunos amigos. Vinimos aquí el sábado por la noche y el almuerzo del domingo. Los propietarios eran encantadores, como el personal del bar. El gato residente, Pamela, también agregó valor. El jardín de la cerveza es absolutamente encantador. El asado era delicioso también. Tenía un ambiente agradable, recomiendo este lugar alto.

Old traditional local pub. Individual and authentic. If you are close, great for a few pints. I did not have the food, but the menu looked pretty good. Nice blast from the past.

Really enjoyed my visit to ashburnham arms, good selection of beers and ale. Friendly staff and great atmosphere.

Este es un gran pequeño pub. Los asados ​​dominicales son excelentes, y nos encanta llevar a nuestros niños al área exterior en la parte posterior, donde pueden jugar con seguridad con la casa de Wendy y otros juguetes. Tienen cervezas decentes también, pero tenga en cuenta que solo sirven comida unos días a la semana, así que compruebe si eso es lo que busca.

We had Sunday lunch here on 17th Sept. It was very nice and the food and drink prices were slightly less than most of Greenwich.

Encontré este pub en un paseo. . . . Nos alegramos de haberlo hecho. . . Pub. muy tradicional en una zona tranquila en Greenwich.

No estoy seguro de qué pub 'ricos F'fuimos a - este es nuestro favorito pub en Greenwich. Un buen local en una calle secundaria tranquila greenwich lejos del mogollón de turistas. Siempre hemos encontrado el mundo era muy amable y acogedor, clientes y personal del bar por igual. La cerveza está bien cuidado y han empezado a hacer la comida, pero vale la pena revisarlo previamente y no creo que se sirve cada día. Tenía el asado el domingo por primera vez este fin de semana y estaba delicioso. Bien merece una visita.

Si estás buscando la hospitalidad no vayas a los brazos de ashburnham. De hecho, no vayas. Hay muchos pubs cerca y este lugar es miserable y muerto. Lo único bueno es el chico amable del norte en el bar. A pesar de las reformas, especialmente (y playhouse para los niños en el jardín): NO vayas si tienes niños

Placid little refuge (if you don't count the giant screen showing rugby) just off the main drag and not far from Cutty Sark. More locals than tourists, which is no bad thing. And the Shepherd Neame bitters were well kept.

Engaging conversation with locals was wonderfully lively and informative, even discussing alternate views of Brexit and POTUS. We felt like regulars after our first visit and make it a regular stop before dinner or before returning home at night.

A nice pub with great beer, friendly locals and boring yuppies .

A lovely pub with great beer, friendly locals and good service. It's not easy to pull off an authentic local, but the new owners do. Long may it continue.

Este es nuestro pub y nos encanta ir allí, el personal recuerda nuestros pedidos bebidas y son tan amables! Tienen un jardín de cerveza, que es más grande de lo que pensaba. Tuve la patatas fritas pescado n última vez - fue maravilloso:).

We booked a table for 6 people on Valentine's day in the evening. The place was empty when we arrived at 7.30pm apart from a couple who were complaining that their potatoes were too hard. The pub looked really nice and the bartender was very friendly. The first dish to arrive was a burger and chips. The burger was OK but the chips were completely burnt and we were very surprised that they had been allowed to leave the kitchen like that (see photo). The next dish to arrive was roast beef which was OK except for the Yorkshire pudding which was raw and uncooked in the middle. The rest of us ordered battered cod & chips which came with the same burnt chips. The fish was cold and uncooked in the middle and we asked for it to be replaced. Although the replacement chips looked OK, they were crunchy and undercooked in the middle. The replacement fish was STILL uncooked in the middle. To the bartender's credit, he did look quite embarrassed about what had been served, apologised and said that we wouldn't be charged for any of the food. I'm not sure what had gone wrong as the rest of the reviews for this pub were uniformly good. Although we weren't charged for the food, it kind of spoiled our whole evening out.

Excellent local pub, the service is the best we've ever had, and the food is tasty proper English pub grub. What else do you need? The Layout and Garden look brill. Would definitely recommend.

We had to wait a bit for our food, but it was well worth it.Great beer, great food, lovely decor.Recommended

My colleagues and I sought this out having seen the reviews. It's an old fashioned looking pub not in a bad way though. We had fish and chips, chicken pie and mash and a burger between our party all of which were tasty. We stayed for the quiz and a few drinks and were made to feel very welcome.

Charming eclectic local pub. Excellent beer (Shepherd & Neame) & as I re-call very good food. Attentive landlord and wizened locals combined with wit and youth.

Authentique - bel accueil - vrai bière - à découvrir hors des sentiers battus !Un peu de marche puis une pause parfaite !

Tucked away in a quiet residential Greenwich street is a real hidden gem if you're looking for great value in a traditional pub setting. Whether it's a quality Sunday roast (the beef was perfect, my mum's slow roast pork looked even better), delicious fish and chips (try the coley - my wife says it's amazing) or the vegetarian options of meat-free Mondays we've never been disappointed. The food can take a little while to arrive if the pub is particularly busy but is well worth the wait. Dishes are mostly around £12 for a substantial main course - I've never had room for the desserts!Well worth the ten minute walk from the Cutty Sark or Royal Park and so much better than the over-priced restaurants crowding the town centre.

There is no shortage of places to eat and drink in the centre of Greenwich, but we decided to try this pub which is a little bit off the tourist trail in a pleasant residential street. We were delighted with our find! Good Kentish ale, excellent food (and good-value), friendly bar staff, good atmosphere (drinkers chatting, quiet diners, quiz later on). Handy for the Premier Inn and the Travelodge.
